Tavros wheeled to the door quickly, looking rather worried. "O-oh my god!!" His eyes widened when he saw both of the boys.

Equius dumped Gamzee into Tavros' lap. "I am to assume this is yours?"

He nodded. "Y-yes... Thank you so much." He smiled up at the teen. "I-I owe you so much man..."

The boy didn't show much emotion, just a soft blush that tinted his cheeks. "It's no problem, you couldn't have gone after him yourself...I must be off now.." And he was gone. Gamzee didn't move, breath shallow.

Tavros wheeled quickly to his room and moved Gamzee onto the bed, unsure of what to even do next other than hope/

He groaned slightly, feeling sick and afraid. He was somewhere in between conscious an passed out.

"Gamzee, it's me, Tavros... You're home now. Nothing will happen again..." He held Gamzee's hand.

He just made another noise, not bothering I move. He relaxed upon hearing Tavros' voice though.

"Back when I was younger, when I could still walk and play around like a kid should..." Tavros started. "Whenever I would get hurt, my mom would bandage me up, and tell me stories... and when I got my injury that paralyzed me, she stayed with me until I woke up, still telling stories..." A tear slipped out of Tavros' eye before he even realized it.

The demon's eyes fluttered as if trying to open, eyebrows furrowing together. He wanted to get closer, but couldn't move.

Tavros noticed the movement and sat up on the bed. "She'd tell me stories about anything and everything, from her childhood, to how she met dad...."

Gamzee hummed softly, attentive.

"She hasnt done it recently since she's out defending the country..." he sighed. "but she'll have loads of stories for us when she comes home!!"

Gamzee made a soft snoring sound, body needing rest. The door opened and Tavros' father came in, setting out clothes he'd bought for Gamzee.

Tavros looked up to his dad. "hi dad..." he said softly.

His father was smiling war to ear. "Guess who's coming home tomorrow?"

A smile crossed Tavros' face. "mom?"

He nodded, smiling at his son. He didn't notice that Gamzee was hurt, thinking him to be asleep. "Yep, she'll arrive here tomorrow!"

"That's great!!!" He smiled. "Do, you think she'll mind that Gamzee is here?"

((iPod tried to put Hamzee))

"I wouldn't think she'd mind. He's a cute little thing after all.."

"I hope she won't mind." he looked at Gamzee and sighed.

The demon looked peaceful, sleeping. "I don't thik she'll mind. He's kind of like a talking kitten..."

Tavros smiled. "I guess so" he said with a soft laugh.

"That's how I'll explain it to your mother so she agrees." He grinned.

Tavros laughed a bit more. "I think she'll accept that..." He looked up at his dad. "He might be hungry soon..."
